Greetings:

My name is Mikel Davila and I am excited to be part of the White Center Community Development Association. It is only my second week at the CDA and I am thankful to be given the opportunity to work with all of you.

Our first chance to formally meet will be during the first Business Mixer of 2012. Until then, you might see me walking around the district, or even visiting your business. The date of February’s Business Mixer is:

Tuesday, February 21, 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.

Location – TBD (to be determined); I’ll send out a reminder email with a confirmed location

Some updates at the Business Mixer will be:

Wayfinding sign project: I plan to give an update regarding the design and location for the next White Center wayfinding sign. It will incorporate the feedback that was collected at October’s Business Mixer.

DubSea Bikes event – Sunday, February 12, 2 – 4 p.m. This free event will focus on minor repairs only (chain lube, brakes and flat tire repair) in an effort to get more bikes on the street in White Center and beyond. More complex jobs may be referred out to a full bike shop. For more info contact: Ellie Weiss, 860-1432, [email protected].
